2018 BMW X3 M40I

The auction lists the primary damage as “Front End.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, citing the broken grille components and severe damage to the right front bumper area. The right kidney grille surround has broken plastic along both the inner and outer edges, with sections of surrounding trim missing. The grille assembly is open toward the front bumper. The right front bumper cover is severely cracked and torn, with a large opening exposing components behind it; the corner is also partially separated from the adjacent bodywork. Sections of trim are missing from the right lower bumper intake area, leaving an irregular opening and exposed internal components. Several light white surface scuffs are visible on the left side of the front bumper cover. The available findings do not establish the condition of components behind the damaged bumper, such as mounting points, sensors, lighting, cooling components, or other front-end structures. A thorough physical inspection and diagnostic scan are recommended before purchase, along with confirmation that all damaged parts and safety systems have been properly repaired and calibrated. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2018 BMW X3 M40i sport utility vehicle with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in the United States. NHTSA records list multiple recalls applicable to certain 2018 BMW X3 M40i vehicles.
